ExplorAR Glasses: An Intelligent Augmented Reality Travel Assistance System Using Geolocation, Contextual Intelligence, And Multimodal Services

ExplorAR Glasses is an intelligent augmented reality (AR)-based travel assistance system designed to enhance real-world exploration through contextual digital augmentation. The system integrates geolocation, artificial intelligence, computer vision, and real-time API services to deliver immersive, hands-free assistance to users. By combining GPS-based location tracking, AI-generated contextual insights, OCR-based translation, weather forecasting, and voice interaction, ExplorAR enables users to interact with their surroundings in a seamless and intuitive manner. The system is built using a modular architecture consisting of a lightweight mobile client and a cloud-based backend. The backend leverages large language models (LLMs) for contextual information generation, while external APIs provide navigation, translation, and environmental data. The frontend prototype, developed using a cross-platform framework, serves as an intermediary between device sensors and backend services. The solution is designed to be scalable and adaptable for integration with wearable AR devices such as smart glasses. This project demonstrates how emerging technologies can be combined to create a real-time, context-aware digital assistant that improves accessibility, travel experience, and user interaction with physical environments.
